Reviews of APR ignition coil

Aftermarkets (especially APR/MST) are reported to fail often, like *very* often.

Not sure if this would matter but I did replace the coils with APR ones, from the stock ones, when I redid the valve cover seal. It has an APR stage 1 tune and and APR air intake. It has had both for the last 165,000 miles (currently has 175,000 miles).

2016 1.4 T ran like brand new after changing to the APR coils. You could definitely feel the difference.

I ran Apr coils for a little while. Was instantly more stable after I was running rough. I think it’s worth it even without a tune, and it’s more headroom to keep a tune stable as well. I didn’t notice power gains only that the rpm needle was sharper at being steady.

I'm running APR coils with ZFR5E-11 plugs. There was a noticeable smoothness when I fired it up after install.

Those coil packs are junk.

I had these APR blue coils on for about 35-40k miles and they ran okayish. At idle my car ran a little rough and have tried different plugs with no change, then one day cylinder 2 started slowly losing power on the highway then just completely fell off the face of the earth when i pulled off. Let car take a break and went back to normal then exact same happened again. Speculated it was coils so swapped to oem and car has been running great 10k miles later. Overall like i said do not recommend whatever pixie dust is in these oem packs is just too good

APR’s snake oil, don’t do anything other than aesthetic. Also don’t fix whats not broken, OEM is far superior

I've had APR coils for over 50k now. No issues at all. Done 3 track days on the coils, and 2 on both the coils and plugs. Been stage 2 for over 30k now.

I have the APR coil packs installed currently (about 5k mikes on them so far) and I gotta say... Just stick with OEM. There is no benefit...
